Clause 46A-Price Variation clause:

46A.1. Price Variation clause shall be applicable only for contracts of value as prescribed by the

Ministry of Railways through instructions/circulars issued from time to time and irrespective of

the contract completion period. Variation in quantities shall not be taken into account for

applicability of PVC in the contract. Materials supplied free of cost by Railway to the

Page 34 of 45

Applicability of PVC based on original contract value is illustrated as under-

“If estimated value of a tender (N.I.T. value) is Rs.55 lakhs; but value of the contract as per

Contract Agreement is Rs.45 lakh, then PVC shall not apply, even if the actual final value is

Rs.50 lakh or more due to variation in quantities during execution of the contract. Thus,

variation in quantities after signing of Contract Agreement is not relevant for deciding whether

PVC is applicable to a contract or not.”

46A.2. The Base Month for „Price Variation clause‟ shall be taken as month of opening of tender

including extensions. If any, unless otherwise stated elsewhere. The quarter for applicability of

PVC shall commence from the month following the month of opening of tender. The Price

Variation shall be based on the average Price Index of the quarter under consideration.

46A.3. Rates accepted by Railway Administration shall hold good till completion of work and no

additional individual claim shall be admissible on account of fluctuations in market rates,

increase in taxes/any other levies/tolls etc., except that payment/recovery for overall market

situation shall be made as per Price Variation Clause given hereunder.

Page 41 of 45

11. VARIATION IN CONTRACT QUANTITIES:-

The procedure as detailed below shall be adopted for dealing with variations in

quantities during execution of works contracts:

(a) The Railway reserves the right to alter the designs and drawings. If due to change of drawing or

design or any other reasons, there be variations, either increase or decrease in quantities, payment

will be made only for the actual quantities executed at the accepted rates. If there be sufficient cause

the Railway may grant extension of the date of completion suitably. Such circumstances shall in no

way affect or vitiate the contract or alter the character thereof, or entitle the contractor to damages

or compensation thereof except as provided for in this contract.

(b) The quantities of each item of work furnished in the Schedule are approximate and are intended for

the guidance of Tenderer/Contractor. In actual execution of work there may be some increase in the

quantities specified. Such variation upto 25% shall in no degree affect the validity of the contract

and it shall be performed by the contractor as provided therein and be subjected to the same

conditions, stipulations and obligations originally and expressly included and provided for in

specifications and drawings and the amount to be paid there for shall be calculated in accordance

with accepted schedule rates.

(1) Prior Finance concurrence is necessary for varying the individual quantities beyond 25% or where

the gross agreement value exceeds 25% of the agreement value.

(2) Individual NS items in contracts shall be operated with variations of plus or minus 25% and payment

would be made as per the agreement rate. For this, no Finance concurrence would be required.

(3) In case an increase in quantity of an individual item by more than 25% of the agreement quantity is

considered unavoidable, the same shall be got executed by floating a fresh tender. If floating a fresh

tender for operating that item is considered not practicable, quantity of that item may be operated in

excess of 125% of the agreement quantity (100% i.e., the original quantity +25% ie., quantity over

and above the original quantity) subject to the following conditions.

(a) Operation of an item by more than 125% of the agreement quantity needs the approval of an

officer of the rank not less than S.A. Grade:

(i) Quantities operated in excess of 125% but upto 140% of the agreement quantity of the

concerned item, shall be paid at 98% of the rate awarded for that item in that particular

tender;

(ii) Quantities operated in excess of 140% but upto 150% of the agreement quantity of the

concerned item shall be paid at 96% of the rate awarded for that item in that particular

tender;

(iii) Variation in quantities of individual items beyond 150% will be prohibited and would be

permitted only in exceptional unavoidable circumstances with the concurrence of

associate finance and shall be paid at 96% of the rate awarded for that item in that

particular tender.

(b) The variation in quantities as per the above formula will apply only to the Individual items of

the contract and not on the overall contract value.

(c) Execution of quantities beyond 150% of the overall agreement value should not be permitted

and, if found necessary should be only through fresh tenders or by negotiating with existing

contractor, with prior personal concurrence of FA&CAO/ FA&CAO(C) and approval of

General Manager.

(4) The limit for varying quantities for minor value items shall be 100% (as against 25% prescribed for

other items). A minor value item for this purpose is defined as an item whose original agreement

value is less than 1% of the total original agreement value.




Page 42 of 45

(5) No such quantity variation limit shall apply for foundation items.

(6) As far as SSR/SOR items are concerned, the limit of 25% would apply to the value of SSR/SOR

schedule as a whole and not on individual SSR/SOR items. However, in case of NS items, the limit

of 25% would apply on the individual items irrespective of the manner of quoting the rate (single

percentage rate or individual item rate).

(7) For the tenders accepted at the Zonal Railways level, variations in the quantities will be approved by

the authority in whose powers revised value of the agreement lies.

(8) For tenders accepted by General Manager, variations upto 125% of the original agreement value may

be accepted by General Manager.

(9) For tenders accepted by Board Members and Railway Ministers variations upto 110% of the original

agreement value may be accepted by General Manager.

(10) The aspect of vitiation of tender with respect to variation in quantities should be checked and

avoided. In case of vitiation of the tender (both for increase as well as decrease of value of contract

agreement) sanction of the competent authority as per single tender should be obtained.

(11) In cases where decrease is involved during execution of contract:

(a) The contract signing authority can decrease the items upto 25% of individual item without

finance concurrence.

(b) For decrease beyond 25% for individual items or 25% of contract agreement value, the

approval of an officer not less than rank of S.A. Grade may be taken, after obtaining „No claim

certificate‟ from the contractor and with finance concurrence giving detailed reasons for each

such decrease in the quantities.

(c) It should be certified that the quantities proposed to be reduced will not be required in the same

work at a later stage.

(d) In the event of any reduction in the quantity to be executed for any reasons whatsoever, the

contractor shall not be entitled to any compensation but shall be paid only for the actual amount

of work done.

(e) The contractor is bound to notify the Engineer at least seven days before the necessity arises for

the execution of any item in excess of 25% of the overall value of the agreement.

(12) In case the contractor fails to attend the meeting after being notified to do so or in the event

of no settlement being arrived at, the Railway shall be entitled to execute the extra works by

other means and the contractor shall have no claim for loss or damage that result from such

procedure.

9 12) Employment of Civil Engineering Graduates/Diploma-holders:

The contractor shall employ the following technical staff during the execution of this work.

i) One graduate engineer when the cost of the work to be executed is Rs.2 Crores and above.

ii) One qualified diploma holder (over-seer) when the cost of the work to be executed is more

than Rs.25 lakhs but less than Rs.2 Crores. Technical staff should be available at site whenever

required by the Engineer-in-charge to take instructions. In case the contractor fails to employ

the technical staff as aforesaid, he shall be liable to pay a reasonable amount not exceeding a

sum of Rs.40,000/- (forty thousand only) for each month of default in case of graduate

engineer and Rs.25,000/- (twenty five thousand only) for each month of default in case of

diploma holder (over-seer)

15. Service Tax ( ref. FA&CAO/G/SC letter No AXP/Service Tax dt.15.12.2016 communicated vide

PCE/SC letter No W.417/P/Pilot/Vol. III dt 05.01.2017)

15.1 Liability to pay:

The service receiver (SR), in certain services (eg. Legal services by advocates SR=100%,

Renting/Hiring of a motor vehicle = SR=40%, Man power services SR=100%, Services provided in

service portion in execution of works contracts SR=50%), has been made liable to pay service tax for the services received. This is colloquially called as „Reverse Charge Mechanism‟.

For the services rendered by any individual, Hindu undivided family or partnership firm, whether

registered or not, including association of persons, located in the taxable territory to a business entity

registered as body corporate, located in the taxable territory, then that body corporate is liable to pay/remit service tax under Reverse Charge rule.

Since Railway is not a business entity registered as a body corporate, but is a Government

department, the reverse charge would not be attracted and there is no need to pay service tax by the Railways as a recipient. The service tax shall be liable to be discharged by the service provider.
